The school in and around Kaslo
What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Elementary schools run from kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary ones to Grade 12; some cover every grade, and alternative, adult and online schools are listed apart.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Kaslo and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- Boards and systems. Public schools belong to English and French-language boards (or districts); independent schools run themselves.
- The year. The province’s 2025/26 list.
